Filter by:The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of motivational interviews with women who experience sexual dysfunction during menopause on sexual quality of life and self-efficacy.The population of the study consisted of menopausal women who applied to the gynecology outpatient clinic of Kahramanmaraş Sütçü İmam University Health Practice and Research Hospital. It was calculated as 164 women (82 experimental, 82 control).In data collection, 'Personal Information Form (EK- )', 'Arizona Sexual Experiences Scale (ACYÖ) (EK- )', 'Sexual Quality of Life Scale-Female (SIQQ-F) (EK-)' and 'Sexual Self-Efficacy Scale' (Annex- )' was used.
Urinary incontinence, commonly observed among women aged 30 to 60, encompasses Stress Urinary Incontinence (SUI), responsible for the majority of cases. This condition significantly affects the quality of life, influencing physical, emotional, and sexual aspects. Severe cases impact libido and cause vaginal dryness, affecting not just sexual function but also relationships, leading to an overall decline in quality of life. Hence, examining sexual functions in those affected by SUI holds significance. The study aimed to evaluate the impact of mesh-urethra distance on sexual functions using perineal ultrasound in continent patients post-transobturator tape (TOT) surgery for isolated SUI. Patients achieving continence post-surgery were categorized based on the distance from the posterior of the urethra at the bladder neck to the nearest proximal edge of the tape: < 5 mm and > 5 mm. Questionnaires, including the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) and The Incontinence Questionnaire Urinary Incontinence Short Form (ICIQ-UI SF), were administered preoperatively and at the 6-month postoperative follow-up.
The aim of this clinical trials is to determine the effect of sexual counseling applied in line with a special counseling model on the sexual functions of couples during pregnancy and postpartum period in order to prevent sexual problems that may occur in the pregnant woman and her husband during pregnancy. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does sexual counseling to be conducted during pregnancy prevent the problems that may occur in women during pregnancy and postpartum period? 2. Does sexual counseling to be conducted during pregnancy prevent the problems that may occur in pregnant women's husband during pregnancy and postpartum period? Questionnaires evaluating the sexual lives of the participants were administered. Afterwards, sexual counseling was given to the pregnant woman and her husband in the first three months of pregnancy. After the counseling, the questionnaires were applied again in the later stages of pregnancy and in the postpartum period. In order to see whether sexual counseling affects sexual problems that may develop during pregnancy and postpartum period, the researchers compared the counseling couples with the pregnant women who did not receive counseling and their spouses.
Asess if adding vaginal spheres treatment to the conventional Pelvic Floor Muscle Trainning (PFMT) produces a greater decrease in the severity of the stress urinary incontinence or a greater perceived quality of life related to incontinence.
This single-case experimental design aims to evaluate the acceptability & feasibility of an online guided self-help intervention for female survivors of sexual assault who experience difficulties returning to sex. The main questions it aims to answer are: • Is the intervention viewed as acceptable by female survivors of sexual assault? Acceptability is defined as as how willing participants are to use the materials and their satisfaction with its content. The secondary question is, are there initial indicators that the intervention is effective? Effectiveness is measured by a reduction in the measure of sexual distress and improvement of sexual satisfaction - specifically confidence and motivation in practising strategies that will improve their experience of sex. Participants will complete the intervention independently. There will be 4-sessions which involve watching videos, with one session completed weekly. The developed materials aim to to help women understand their difficulties, learn practical strategies and build confidence in returning to sex. The materials are also guided by a piloted group for sexual distress by Bart's National Health Service (NHS) trust Sexual Wellbeing Service. The NHS is the publicly funded healthcare system in England.
Human Papilloma virus is the most common sexual infection in women, which can leads to cervical lesion and cervical cancer. Pap test is recommanded in women of 25 years old until 65 years old in order to screen subclinic lesions and improve prognosis. Yet, scientific knowledge about chronic disease showed negative consequences on quality of life. However, no study until now has striven to evaluate the consequences of an abnormal pap test on sexuality in adult women. The aim of this study is to evaluate if an abnormal pap test have an impact on the sexual functions in women because of the anxiety and psychological consequences of the diagnosis
Sjögren's syndrome is an autoimmune disorder characterized by glandular and extra-glandular manifestations. It is called primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS) in absence of another connective tissue disease. The hallmark symptoms of pSS are dry eyes and dry mouth due to the decreased lacrimal and salivary gland functions. However, other tissue and organs may also be involved which precede such as xerotrachea in upper airway, atrophic gastritis and pancreatitis in gastrointestinal tract, and dryness in vaginal mucosa. Regarding to the genital involvement in pSS, vaginal dryness and resultant vaginal discomfort, and pain are reported as the common complaints. The transudate released by vaginal mucosa is the main resource of vaginal secretions.The human microbiome was reported to have a potential impact in etiopathogenesis of certain autoimmune disorders. The previous research revealed significant alterations in the gut, eye, and oral flora of the pSS patients. The disturbed oral flora due to immunodeficiency and reduced salivary flow was also reported to make the SS patients to prone to bacterial infections and recurrent oral candidiasis. Vaginitis has been defined as a spectrum of symptoms suggesting vulvovaginal discomfort such as itching, burning, irritation, and abnormal discharge. Even the vaginitis is an evidence of disturbance in vaginal flora, previous prospective research on vaginal microbiome of pSS patients either excluded the cases with vaginitis or not mentioned from the presence of vaginitis in women with pSS. To the best of our knowledge, there has not been any study yet to define the characteristics of vaginal flora through the presence of clinical signs and symptoms in women with pSS. To gain more insight into the clinical context of the gynecologic complaints, sexual dysfunction, and presence of vaginitis in pSS, the current study aims to identify the associations between these issues and pSS related disease parameters.
Sexuality is integral to personality, influencing feelings, thoughts, actions, and physical and mental health. Female sexual dysfunction is a fairly common condition that covers four main areas: hypoactive sexual desire disorder, arousal disorder, orgasmic disorder, and sexual pain disorder. Although incidence and prevalence rates vary, it has been reported that women range between 30% and 50%. Male sexual dysfunction is not a single disease. Male sexual arousal refers to the entire process of sexual activity for men, including penile erection, penile penetration, ejaculation, and any obstruction in a single connection. It is a significant psychological distress for affected men, their sexual partners, and their health-related quality of life. Sexual dysfunctions are common among men of all ages and ethnic and cultural backgrounds. It is reported in the literature that 52% of men between the ages of 40-70 experience various degrees of sexual dysfunction. Cardiovascular disease, smoking, obesity, sedentary lifestyle, diabetes, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and metabolic syndrome are risk factors for sexual dysfunction. Although the positive effects of adopting healthy lifestyle changes and dietary habits in reducing the risks of these diseases have been proven, few studies have evaluated the impact of these treatment approaches on sexual dysfunction. Studies evaluating the relationship between diet and erectile dysfunction have focused more on men with diabetes. Some small studies have also shown that lifestyle modification and weight loss interventions improve erectile dysfunction in men with significant cardiovascular risks. The same is valid for female sexual dysfunction. The Western diet and its components are indirectly associated with sexual morbidity. The Western diet has processed foods, refined carbohydrates, and high sodium and monounsaturated fat content, which have been widely linked to the development of MetS, obesity, and diabetes. These comorbidities are also risk factors for female sexual dysfunction as well. This study aims to evaluate the relationship between the eating habits of obese and non-obese men and women and their sexual functions.
This study aimed to determine the effect of perineal massage and pelvic floor exercise in the antenatal period on sexuality and urinary and fecal incontinence in the postpartum period. This study will be conducted in a pregnant school at a state hospital in Turkey. An active control group will be formed as the control group. The control group will be given the "Pelvic Floor Dysfunction Prevention Training" booklet prepared by the researchers. Experimental 1 group will receive perineal massage training in addition to the "Pelvic Floor Dysfunction Prevention Training" booklet given to the control group. Experimental 2 group will receive pelvic floor exercises in addition to perineal massage training and the "Pelvic Floor Dysfunction Prevention Training" booklet given to the control group.
The aim of this prospective study is investigation of efficiency and safety of medical device "Magic Gyno" in accordance with the stated purpose. To assess the condition of the vaginal walls and vulva before and after laser treatment, the following methods will be used: gynecology examination, vaginal health index, clinical blood test, vaginal flora examination, vaginal pH. International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire - Short Form (ICIQ-SF), Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) and The Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) will be used to collect feedback on changes in the participants life quality. Total up to 70 participants with pathology of pelvic organs will be involved in the study. Participants will be divided into two groups: group with genitourinary symptoms and group with vaginal relaxation symptoms, by 35 participants in each. The time intervals between tests will be the same for both groups. The main hypothesis of the study is improvement in condition of the vaginal walls after laser treatment compared with the condition before treatment.
